Iwasawa theory of fine Selmer groups associated to Drinfeld modules

Let $q$ be a prime power and $F={\mathbb{F}}_q(T)$ be the rational function field over ${\mathbb{F}}_q$, the field with $q$ elements. Let $\phi$ be a Drinfeld module over $F$ and $\mathfrak{p}$ be a non-zero prime ideal of $A:={\mathbb{F}}_q[T]$. Over the constant ${\mathbb{Z}}_p$-extension of $F$, we introduce the fine Selmer group associated to the $\mathfrak{p}$-primary torsion of $\phi$. We show that it is a cofinitely generated module over $A_{\mathfrak{p}}$. This proves an analogue of Iwasawa’s $\mu =0$ conjecture in this setting, and provides context for the further study of the objects that have been introduced in this article.
